DESCRIPTION

The DAFS service makes filer data accessible to clients through DAFS exports, which are controlled points of access in the DAFS namespace. A DAFS export may be readwrite or read-only, may be enabled or disabled, and may have a client-host based access list associated with it. The dafs export command creates a DAFS export, deletes a DAFS export, lists all, or a selected, DAFS export, and modifies properties of a DAFS export. Each DAFS export has a unique name, set when the export is created. The name is used to identify the export later. Access to exports is controlled by host access lists. See na_dafs_access(1) for more information.

OPTIONS

create [-r] export_name path
Create a new DAFS export identified by export_name. The export is associated with the filer volume path. If the -r argument is used then the export is created as read-only, otherwise it is created as read-write. The operation of creating a new export places the export into the DAFS namespace so that it is visible to DAFS clients.

destroy export_name
Destroy a DAFS export identified by export_name. Access by DAFS clients to the export is removed on the next access.

list [export_name]
List DAFS exports and their properties. If a single export_name is given then just that export will be listed.

modify -r | -w export_name
Modify attributes of an export, including read-only or read-write access. If the -r argument is used then the export is marked as read-only. If the -w argument is used then the export is marked as read-write. Only one of -r and -w may be used.

enable export_name
Make the export export_name available for use after a previous disable command. See the disable command for more information.

disable export_name
Disable the export export_name. A disabled export has configuration information preserved on the filer, but is not available for DAFS clients to access. A disabled export may subsequently be made available again by the enable command.

all
Export all entries. This command manually reexports all entries for the current host.

EXAMPLES

Create a new export called data1 for /vol/vol3:
       dafs export create data1 /vol/vol3

The following example makes export data1 read-only:

       dafs export modify -r data1

LIMITATIONS

The export path must correspond to a filer volume.
